영문 초록

This paper argues that a peaceful resolution of the North Korean nuclear disputes greatly depends on th U.S strategy, since that country has enough capabilities to control the negotiation process, whereas the North`s resources are quite limited. Therefore, it suggests that accurate identification analysis of the evolving positions of the United States and their underlying causes at various levels are essential. The paper has found that the key explanatory variables include the Bush security team`s ability to understand the international constraints that limit the practicability of the Bush doctrine and domestic politics that could tie the Bush administration`s hands while, at the same time, prompting it to readjust the course of its foreign policy.
